[Note: I'm using "/opt/sfw/share/emacs/21.2/".]
I have no idea how I might of caused this -- making emacs think of
a regular file as "[(dired by name)]".
Ideas?
--- ok, here's the code (from dired.el):
| (defun dired-sort-set-modeline ()
| ;; Set modeline display according to dired-actual-switches.
| ;; Modeline display of "by name" or "by date" guarantees the user a
| ;; match with the corresponding regexps. Non-matching switches are
| ;; shown literally.
| (setq mode-name
| (let (case-fold-search)
| (cond ((string-match dired-sort-by-name-regexp dired-actual-switches)
| "Dired by name")
| ((string-match dired-sort-by-date-regexp dired-actual-switches)
| "Dired by date")
| (t
| (concat "Dired " dired-actual-switches)))))
| (force-mode-line-update))
|
| (defun dired-sort-toggle-or-edit (&optional arg)
| "Toggle between sort by date/name and refresh the dired buffer.
(1) What are these switches? (C-h v couldn't see: dead)
(2) What problem does this fix (ie, why is it *done*?):
| ;; Modeline display of "by name" or "by date" guarantees the user a
| ;; match with the corresponding regexps. Non-matching switches are
| ;; shown literally.
